Gaze of the Empress

Two 2D anime women are shown in a close-up, chest-up shot. Both women have pale skin and appear to be young adults. The 2D anime woman on the right has long, straight, dark red hair that reaches her waist. She wears a dark, possibly black, dress or top with a high collar. Her head is tilted down, and she looks at the 2D anime woman on the left with a serious expression. Her left hand is not visible, but her right arm extends downward, out of view. The 2D anime woman on the left has shoulder-length light blue hair. She wears a dark top, possibly blue or black. Her head is tilted up, and she looks at the 2D anime woman on the right with a surprised expression. Her right hand is visible and appears to be gently touching the chin or jawline of the 2D anime woman on the right. The background is a mix of dark red, black, and white, with a faded, almost smoky appearance. The lighting is soft and appears to come from the left, highlighting the faces of both 2D anime women.
